Robert Borning is a pedantic person, a loner, almost autistic. He goes to the psychiatrist the same way every week, until he's asked for directions to the Crossroads Bar by tattooed returnee Jack on the way. An encounter that turns into a friendship and turns his previously regulated, dreary life around.

Gradually, his perception and behavior change. Suddenly the district no longer just seems gray and barren to him. He begins to see colors, daisies growing between asphalt. He no longer always follows the same straight path as before. Allows himself to admit wishes and feelings that he had previously denied himself - including the feelings towards his psychotherapist Renate Fischer. He remembers that he actually wanted to be a famous conductor and quits his job...

With his book "Course into Paradise" - "Being on the journey to paradise", the author vividly shows that our life consists of repetitions of events and actions, like a recurring rhythm or a spiral in which one feels like in a spinning hamster wheel. You have so many dreams that you dismiss as unrealistic. Then, suddenly, something or someone comes along... a nudge, a stimulus that leads to you getting wings and daring to leap into the unknown. It's often just the right time that you need, and everything changes - including yourself.

​A book that gives hope. That everyone can get wings and dare something. You don't just have to dream. A guide to happiness and that you can achieve anything, that you can move mountains yourself. You just have to have the courage to try.
